...i’m a guy and I’m only 16 years old....... my girlfriend had a contraceptive implant when she got pregnant... we were both secretly hoping that she would... and she did... which is a 1% chance... we were both happy and excited and were going to keep it but then onetime about 3 months into the pregnancy... i got very angry and did the stupidest thing I’ve ever done in my entire life... i told her that i didn’t want anything to do with her and she should abort the baby... then as she was depressed she drank poison... and I’m not sure if that made her have a miscarriage... but it happened later that night.... i have cried everyday since then... its the most stupid thing i have ever said in my entire life... if i could ever have one wish it would be to take it back... if i never said that... our baby would still be alive.... i just hate it that I’ve hurt her so much... my girlfriend is suffering just as much if not more than me... and i just wish that she didn’t have to.. it’s all my fault and i cant change it and its killing me... its only been a few days and its killing me... I’ve contemplated suicide... and i cant stand it... the only thing i have is my girlfriend... she is all that is holding me together... i just want my baby...
I know this isn’t an abortion story... but it has affected my girlfriend and me just the same.
